Overview of the device - CRB-631
Traffic announcement (TA)
The TA button is used in TUNER mode to switch the "Traffic announcement" function
on and off. The default setting is OFF. Press the TA button to switch the function on
and press it again to switch it off. If the "Traffic announcement" function is active, the
device automatically tunes into a station with traffic announcements (TA appears on the
screen). If the "Traffic announcement" function is switched on but no traffic news is
currently available, the TA symbol flashes on the display. If the device cannot receive a
station with traffic announcements, it returns to the previously set station. If the TA
function is switched on, but no RDS signal is received, the symbol TP flashes on the
display.
If the device is run in another mode when the TA function is active (such as CD, USB,
SD or AUX-IN), the device automatically switches to TUNER mode if a traffic
announcement is received and the traffic announcement is transmitted. After the traffic
announcement the device automatically returns to its previous mode. When a traffic
announcement is being made, the buttons AS/PS, (preset) buttons [1-6] / PTY / MODE
/ Tune up / Tune down and the Band button are locked. When the TA button is
pressed briefly once, the received traffic announcement is ignored. The "Traffic
announcement" function is switched off by pressing the TA button twice.
Programme type (PTY)
The "Programme type" function is switched on and off by pressing the PTY button in
TUNER mode. The default setting is OFF. If the "Programme type" function is switched
on and a corresponding station is received, the PTY information is shown on the
display. If the "Programme type" function is switched on, the last selected PTY
programme can be searched for by pressing the buttons Tune up/Tune down. The
PTY genre of your choice can be selected by pressing and holding the PTY button and
afterwards pressing the plus (+) or minus (-) buttons. If you press the PTY button
again, the device searches for a station which corresponds to this PTY genre. If no
corresponding station is found, the message "NOT FND" (not found) is shown on the
display and the PTY symbol flashes. The PTY search is cancelled by pressing the PTY
button again.
Alternative frequency (re-tuning if the signal is weak) (AF / REG)
The "AF" function is switched on or off by pressing the AF button in TUNER mode. The
default setting is OFF. If the AF function is switched on and available on the selected
station, the AF symbol is shown on the display. If the function is not available, the
symbol flashes.
If the AF button is pressed in TUNER mode for longer than 2 seconds, the
"REGIONAL" function is switched on or off. The default setting is OFF. If the REG
function is switched on, the device searches for the station with the same station ID on
another frequency. If the function is switched off, the station ID is ignored.
